NWT Christophe Lemaire black wool coat, size 1 (small)

Posting for Emily:

I have come to terms with the fact that my Christophe Lemaire coat is not cut for a shrimp like me. It is a women's size 1 in CL's sizing (S) but it is meant to fit very oversized. The shoulders measure approximately 17.5-18" so they're meant to be dropped; due to the length of the sleeves, though, it could probably work on a man too. Coat is ~44" long (I'm 5'2" for reference). First three photos are of the coat on a model; last is on me.

It's NWT, purchased from 11th Moon in Laguna Beach. It is gorgeous, super heavy wool with a lovely luster, and is fully lined. Happy to provide more pics/measurements/specs if you're interested. MSRP of $850; I purchased it on sale, so I'm just looking to get back what I paid by selling for $330 free US shipping! Open to international sales, just leave a comment). Listing ends December 26.

manual for using

LoGE is moving to Instagram (thegeneraleconomy)Please email submissions for review to thegeneraleconomy@gmail.com

the rules are simple:1. this is not a blog about making a profit.it is NOT intended as a site for recycling fast fashion. it is a place where you can buy and sell (and share) clothing by independent designers as well as classic, high quality pieces of both contemporary and vintage make. 2. if you're selling, include pertinent information like measurements, imperfections or fit issues, and the best photographs you can manage.

3. if you want the item, leave your name and contact information in the comments. if you do not leave your email, you will not be eligible. the buyer has 1 business day to pay or make an arrangement with the seller.4. if you are on the receiving end, it is always nice to offer something so other people can have the opportunity to have it.
